Parts Affected

The original motor is no longer available, and a replacement has proved impossible to find due to the physical size of the motor.

The design constrains the frame size, and requires two modifications

1.      Fins on the motor need to be machined off to prevent the motor casing hitting the infeed clamps

2.      The motor electrical connection box needs to sit in the correct orientation and be physically low enough to pass underneath the spindle connection

box. A modified lid was fitted to allow this to happen

All replacements considered cannot meet these physical constraints, particularly the connection box issue.

Stuga have a limited stock of second-hand motors. The recommendation is to get the motors rewound locally to the customer site
